Sammy Arriaga - Chucks On A Wire lyrics

Can't help but slow down by those power-lines
Nah nothing changes in this town, its always the same
Everybody else just keeps on driving by
But when I look up, its Friday night at the football game

Our team was down by thirty
You and I weren't even worried
Cause we wanted to leave anyway
To that empty street we danced on
Wearin' out those soles all night long
I remember it like yesterday

We wrote our names and we tied em together
Spun em around, let em fly, thinkin' that it was forever
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Than chucks on a wire

I can't believe they've been up there so long
A memory of us up in the sky stitched in black and white
Can't remember where exactly we went wrong but I
Can't help but smile everytime I'm passing by

Cause I'm back behind those bleachers
Your hands underneath my t-shirt
Didn't care about watching the game
And that empty street we danced on
Wearin' out those soles all night long
I remember it like yesterday

We wrote our names and we tied em together
Spun em around, let em fly, thinkin' that it was forever
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Sometimes I wonder if you still remember
Walkin' home barefoot and laughing cause we didn't know better
At least something held on through the weather
We shot for the stars but couldn't get no higher
Than chucks on a wire
